Happy Pride from the Cheshire House! (No, it's not pride month anymore, but when most of your writers are queer every month is pride month). The heatwave almost cooked us, but we pulled through, and now we return with three wonderful new stories for you:

Wow, has it been two years already? Our first release was March 31st, 2024, which makes today... yep, that's two years alright! thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2026/03/31/t... This wonderfully distorted artwork was drawn by the excellent Aristide Twain @aristidetwain.bsky.social !

A digitally drawn green Cheshire Cat seen from the shoulders up grins at the viewer, giant eyes reflecting two different, grinning Cheshire Cats. The Cat is standing in front of blinds, and the whole image is very distorted.

Wow, is it that time again already? Another couple of months, another few stories for you all to enjoy! thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/08/13/t... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/08/14/t... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/08/14/t...

Yellow smokey rips, like light through the trees, run across black. On the black is faint, partially redacted text, and in the yellow rips is a glimpse of a street. This artwork has “Disparate Minds” written in white at the top, and “This Is The Intent Or, The Monkey Way” at the bottom.

A photo edit of lightning illuminating a dream-like forest.

A digital illustration of brightly coloured hands hands rising from purple waves, reaching towards falling pieces of blue paper. The hands are webbed, and some grasp leaflets, scrolls, or paper airplanes

The Cheshire House is excited to share three new stories from across our ranges; new stories from Zadellin, Disparate Minds, and The Interstellar Sleuth! thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/06/01/w... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/06/01/a... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/06/01/t...

The illustration for "With Love and Rage". A painting of a spired city in the distance, with an orange path leading between it and a hill, at the top of which two grey-robed figures stand, the one on the left looking at the city through a telescope. There are several other hills in the distance, and a bright blue sea is intruding at the edges of the page.

A white boat with its mainsail rolled up sits on the sea, seen through fog. Black text reads “Disparate Minds” and “Atoll”.

The illustration for "The Court of King Max". A young girl in a red hoodie with blonde hair looks up at a glowing crown, floating above her head. Behind her is a blue sky and some green vegetation.

One year ago, we released the first batch of stories onto our website. Since then, we've launched 4 series, with 25 releases in total! So join us today in celebration by reading our special anniversary story — ‘One Year’, by @plumpuddin.bsky.social. thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/03/31/o...

Standing upright on a red surface is a blue-and-green striped cat, grinning wildly, a fork in one paw and a knife in the other as it prepares to eat a three-layer cake sitting in front of it, with a light ‘1’ shaped blue candle on top

Welcome to 2025, where we have two new stories to share with you all, from the worlds of Disparate Minds and Zadellin! thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/03/01/m... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2025/03/01/m... (Thread 🧵)

The cover of "Makeover", by Plum Pudding.

An explosion of pink lighting obscures an audience, whose silhouettes can be seen watching a stage, also obscured. At the top in white letters reads “DISPARATE MINDS”, and at the bottom in white reads “MAKEOVER”.

The cover of "Market of the Uncanny", by Theta Mandel.

Brightly coloured tents are being swept away by a storm. Objects on a blanket are being lifted into the air as, in the leftmost tent, a pink-haired woman argues with a blue-haired vendor. A blond in a red jacket stands just outside, looking in. At the bottom of the image is the top of a metal fence, spikes reaching up.

Happy Holidays from all of us here at The Cheshire House! Today, we merrily present four stories [1/ ] thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2024/12/24/a... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2024/12/24/o... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2024/12/24/l... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2024/12/24/t...

A digital artwork of a huge orange sun against a purple, cloudy sky. A bright pink floral landscape partially blocks the sight of the sun in the right hand corner of the bottom of the piece.

A girl with brown hair and a pink coat, pink scarf, and pink bobble-hat looks solemnly at a factory in the distance, standing against a dark, smoke-filled sky on a green hill. On the left, also behind the girl, is another hill on which stands a red bus stop with a sign reading “E-18”.

The cover artwork of ‘Little Gifts’, with pine trees nestled in a snowy landscape, with a star-filled sky in the background. At the top in white letters reads “DISPARATE MINDS”, and at the bottom in white reads “LITTLE GIFTS”.

A digital drawing of Lotto, a man with brown skin, round spectacles, a grey beard and mustache, a red scarf, coat, and hat, and brown trousers and shoes. He is sitting with his back against the inside of a yellow crescent moon, looking out as stars twinkle across the sky, which is filled with light.

Happy Halloween! From the worlds of Disparate Minds and Zadellin, The Cheshire House is thrilled to show you two fantastic new releases! thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2024/10/31/i... thecheshirehouse.wordpress.com/2024/10/31/z...

The cover of ‘Into the Redline’ is tinted red. From inside a dark cave, we look out at mountains behind the silhouette of a man, standing at the mouth of the cave. Cracks are across the whole image, spreading out from the torso of the silhouette. At the top in white letters reads “DISPARATE MINDS”, and at the bottom in white reads “INTO THE REDLINE”.
